Yakuza: Transmutations
Yakuza is not for everybody. Let’s start with that. Not traditional metal, Yakuza bring their own form and function from the windy city of Chicago. Let me elaborate…
Take a little bit of Mushroomhead, add some Ziggy Stardust, a pinch of jazz and a whole can of Whoop-ass and you have Yakuza. A saxophone, bass clarinet, a moog and a sakuhachi in a metal band. WTF is a moog and sakuhachi…google it!
I told you they were different…but wait. Different in a good way. Every song on Transmutations can go from moderate to stampede in the drop of a dime. You can be relaxing to the beat one second and putting your fist through a wall the next! It’s simply amazing!
You may already know Yakuza, but if you don’t then once you listen you will never forget them! Once again Prosthetic records brings you a truly awesome band. Surely there will be hateful people saying that this isn’t “Real” metal …but honestly? What is REAL metal these days?
